Do you ever use a video camera to measure the release time? Seems like it would be hard to stop and start a stopwatch that quickly without some measurement error.

Playing back digital video at 60 fps you can almost guarantee accuracy to about 1/100th of a second.

I have used it on occaision when at my clinics but have found that my timing is pretty consistant from player to player. Since not all coaches have access to a camera this gives a way for a coach to get a baseline number. If he is the one always timeing that player the progress or lack of progress can be charted for that player.
